Here is what Bush said last night
The government's top economic experts warn that, without immediate action by Congress, America could slip into a financial panic and a distressing scenario would unfold.
More banks could fail, including some in your community.
The stock market would drop even more, which would reduce the value of your retirement account.
The value of your home could plummet. Foreclosures would rise dramatically.
And if you own a business or a farm, you would find it harder and more expensive to get credit.
More businesses would close their doors, and millions of Americans could lose their jobs.
Even if you have good credit history, it would be more difficult for you to get the loans you need to buy a car or send your children to college.
And, ultimately, our country could experience a long and painful recession.
so, if this does not pass - while he does not say it will - it "could" - to me that is leading by fear. Pointing out EVERY possible worse thing that could happen.
and yes, I copied and pasted - I wanted to be sure to get the words correct rather than writing down the essence of what others have interpreted his speech to mean.
